Amber vine

Climbing plant type: Vine (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)

This short vine is a fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 24 feet (7.3 meters) and growing as high as 43 feet (13.1 meters).

It takes 8 months for the brown stems to mature, by which point they have often fused together into ropes with a diameter of 2 cm (0.8 inches) and are smooth and waxy.

The thin, covered in fine hairs leaves reach up to 4 inches (10 cm) in length. They are azure and amber, and have smooth edges.

During late spring, the vine produces a handful of large slate flowers, and during the late autumn, after flowering, it produces a few very large seed pods.

It comes in 29 varieties.
It can survive a long time without water.
It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
